Selkirk Sport Debuts Legacy Pro and Legacy Classic Shoes
Selkirk Sport has introduced two performance-driven pickleball footwear models — the Legacy Pro and the Legacy Classic. This footwear line is engineered specifically for pickleball's unique lateral movements, pivots, and abrupt stops.
The shoes feature an InfiniGrip outsole made from cast polyurethane, which is said to offer significantly higher abrasion resistance than traditional rubber. The silhouettes also boast an EVA PureFoam midsole for shock absorption and energy return, and an ergonomic heel cockpit to stabilize the foot during intense braking. The Pro is for competitive athletes who need maximum ventilation and supportive lockdown, and the Classic offers a minimalist microfiber upper for a more casual, court-to-café versatility.
Selkirk Sport also ensured its pickleball footwear is stylish and, as such, both the Legacy Pro and the Legacy Classic models offer a vintage-inspired and clean aesthetic.
